A new startup called Gonla.com is secretly preparing to enter the online travel competition in Indonesia. Almost no information can be found on the web page that currently still says “Coming Soon”, but we managed to gather some information about this stealth startup.
A simple search through WHOIS inside the Gonla domain will reveal information that said domain is registered under the name PT. Visi Perjalanan Inkubator.
